Sorry its late as ever, but there's alot going on in life!

Chapter 9:

I took a deep breath as I walked down the streets of LaPush. No one really cares what you do in LaPush, unless its something bad. Walking isn't bad. I was going to go to Sue Clearwater's little Diner to ask for a job. Sue already said there was a place for me and all the other wolf girls worked there.

Sue knew about the baby. She wouldn't work me very hard, with it inside me and stuff. It's just something to let me and Paul get a few nice things for the house. Maybe alot of baby equipment. 200 dollars a week is alot of money. Most will get around 300 because they like to work 40 hour weeks. I only want to work 25. Sue pays us a little more than minimum wage, but its only 8$ an hour, but it still should get us on our feet.

Sue's Diner wasn't very far from my house. Only a little up the road, and after the day I'd been having, I needed some time away from Paul. Being married at 14 is hard. I know it's against the law, but I really don't give a damn. I don't have parental permission but they obviously don't care. I do miss them alot though.

I walked up the gravel parking lot of Sue's Diner. Sue's Diner is the name of the establishment. Sue's like a second mother to me. She's sooo nice all the time. I don't see how, expecially with her son, Seth, being a werewolf and all.

I opened the door and walked into the dimly lit diner. A bell jingled as I walked through.

" Sue!" I called as I took off my jacket and put it on a coat hanger, then hung it on the wall with the coat rack on it.

I didn't hear any movement.

"SUE! LEAH?" I asked/yelled. I walked up to the counter and looked around and under it.

" Hmmm. That's weird." I mumbled to myself as I walked through the slit between the counters that lead to the back room and kitchen.

" SUE?" I called again as I entered the kitchen. I froze.

You would never believe me if I told you what I saw.

Leah. She had earbuds stuck in her ears, they were blasting Eminem, she sang along with it as she tried not to burn the pancakes she was making.

I walked up to her and pulled both earbuds out of her ears.

" Hey!" she whined and turned around, spatula in hand.

The front side of Leah's body was covered in flour. I mean from head to foot. All white.

I burst out laughing.

" Oh! Heather! It's just you!" she exclaimed as she rolled her eyes.

I kept laughing, but it only lasted a few minutes.

" What do you want?" she asked as she went back to her now burnt pancakes. I grinned.

" Um. To let your mom know that I'm taking that job. And do you want help with that?" I asked her. She immediatly handed me the skillet after she dumped out the burnt one.

I put the skillet on the stove. I poured the batter into into the pan.

" How did you learn to cook?" Leah asked as she settled into a lounging position against the counter.

" Impact. Our teacher had cooking classes for us to take in 8th grade. We also had to take a baby home for a week. It really sucked. I dont wanna go through with that again and now I'm actually having a baby." I told Leah as I took the spatula and flipped the pancake.

" That's gonna suck, but were all here for you Heat. All of us... always remember that." she said as she took the spatula and pushed down on the pancake. I sizzled.

I took her hand and shoved the spatula under the pancake and lifted it onto a plate, a few inches above the skillet.

" Now you try it!" I encouraged Leah. I smiled as Leah and me cooked for the rest of the night.

Sorry for the really long wait. Life's crazy at the moment! I'll start on the next chapter immediatly!
